Comparisons Featuring TCL NxtPaper
Short Review
- The TCL NxtPaper features a sleek design with dimensions of 203.8 x 150.8 x 7.5 mm and a weight of 316g, making it relatively portable.
- Its 8.88-inch NCVM display offers a resolution of 1080 x 1440 pixels at a 4:3 aspect ratio, providing decent clarity at approximately 203 ppi.
- Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT8768E chipset with an octa-core CPU clocked at 2.0 GHz, paired with 4GB of RAM, which handles everyday tasks efficiently.
- The rear camera is an 8 MP unit capable of recording 1080p video at 30fps, while the 5 MP front camera serves basic selfie needs.
- A robust 5500mAh battery ensures extended usage, supported by 18W charging, though it lacks wireless charging capabilities.
- The device runs on Android 10, offering a straightforward user experience without additional bloatware.
- Connectivity options include dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, and USB Type-C, though it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The absence of stereo speakers is notable, but it retains a headphone jack for wired audio.
- Available in Ultramarine Green, the TCL NxtPaper combines practical features with a functional design.
